However, this time it is HTC's turn to introduce a price cut, with the company announcing that its entire Vive VR system is now available at $599, dropping its price by a whopping $200. This price reduction is permanent, with HTC chairwoman Cher Wang elaborating on the decision saying:

“Our goal at VIVE has always been to offer the best and most advanced VR system and drive mass market adoption for VR across the globe. We’re continuing to deliver on that commitment with this new price for VIVE, making VR more accessible to a broader audience and driving the entire VR industry forward.”

The kit arrives with basically all the equipment needed for a full room-scale VR experience, including the Vive headset, two wireless controllers, and two lighthouse base stations, minus the VR-ready PC of course.
